## Big East Basketball Tournament - Notre Dame v Marquette

I get it, ND. You're the Irish, and people associate green with Ireland. But the thing is, you picked blue and gold. YOUR COLORS ARE BLUE AND GOLD. Let your students rally around the blue and gold that are the better part of your history. Or else make adidas give you a shade of green that doesn't make you look like walking [seafoam salad](https://i.yummly.com/Lime-Cottage-Salad-Recipezaar-160387.card.jpg?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).

It's just... it's what St. Patrick threw up after drinking all the green beer.

"WHY ARE THESE DUMB? WHY ARE WE THE WORST AT THINGS? DID ADIDAS EVEN DESIGN THESE OR DID WE GET CATFISHED?"

## Cincinnati

Oh, but then THESE. What an eyesore. They're like if people liked to play basketball AND go hunting at the same time.

## Cincinnati

I mean, the dude on the left looks like he's just trying to get some basketball done here, and the guy on the right looks like he's tagging his man in a dance-off.

"It's okay, son. We'll be losing this game and then we can all go home and pretend this never happened."

## Baylor

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/163706180.xml)

BAYLOR. I can't decide which is worse -- this iteration, [or the all-yellow one that was promoted](https://www.usatoday.com/story/gameon/2013/02/28/adidas-college-basketball-sleeves-stripes-zubaz/1953549/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). It might be this one, because all the details are much more stark. Fortunately for Baylor, I believe they had a history of ugly uniforms already -- or at least bright, occasionally urine-colored ones -- so this probably didn't even raise a light pong, much less a stink.

## Big East Basketball Tournament - Villanova v Louisville

Louisville, by virtue of a high seed, always got to be the "home" team (in quotes because they were not actually at home) and thus wore the light version of its unis the whole time [rather than the deep red](https://www.usatoday.com/story/gameon/2013/02/28/adidas-college-basketball-sleeves-stripes-zubaz/1953549/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). This must have been an excellent motivational tool for Rick Pitino.

## Big East Basketball Tournament - Second Round - Rutgers v Notre Dame

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/163636981.xml)

Not so much for Notre Dame, because guess what? Our "home" uniforms were ALSO AWFUL. That green needs to die. I mean, I hate when we go gimmicky with the green football jerseys, but at least one recent iteration of those was attractive. I would RATHER be conflicted about my rage, y'all. This was just a solid three-day tantrum.

## Kansas

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/163686542.xml)

These chaps seem awfully cheerful. Why? Well, to start, they got the home colors and not [the punch-you-in-the-junk blue and white](https://www.usatoday.com/story/gameon/2013/02/28/adidas-college-basketball-sleeves-stripes-zubaz/1953549/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). And second, they only played one game in them. That's right, for the next round, Kansas wisely said, "Screw THAT," and put on normal basketball clothes and looked like sane human beings. Did Notre Dame not know this was an option? We played TWO ENTIRE GAMES in the green monstrosities and one in the white ones! To bastardize Jeannie Bueller, "Why should they get to ditch when everyone else has to go?!?"

## UCLA v Arizona State

![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/163688437.xml)

UCLA ditched TOO. One game in this comparatively sane ensemble and they were right back to their regulars. The moral of this story is: Notre Dame, Cincy, and Baylor AT THE VERY LEAST should burn their contracts and hit up Reebok. I was going to say Nike, but that company is responsible for Oregon's football unis, so let's run the other direction. Hell, even Stella McCartney would be better -- her GBR Olympics stuff ran rings around this. Hear me, adidas? STELLA McCARTNEY HAS BESTED THEE. Hang your heads.

[Fug the Uniforms: adidasFor the various basketball conference tournaments (please, not the official March Madness tourney, or "madness" it will be), adidas made special-occasion uniforms for six teams. Six teams they OBVIOUSLY HATE. FOR THESE ARE AWFUL. SO AWFUL. When I saw Notre Dame's green "away" kit, I almost passed out on the spot -- which is an accomplishment considering how screamingly loud they are -- and then Tweeted that they are a neon aneurysm. Also, Time wisely left Zubaz behind. Why can't adidas? \[Photos: Getty\]![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/163712685.xml)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/fug-the-uniforms-adidas-03-2013/)
